Complementary Treatments

There is no instant cure for schizophrenia, but people can and do recover. The experience of schizophrenia is unique to each person, and as a result, each person’s experience of recovery is unique—what might work well for one person may not work so well for another. For people with a mental illness such as schizophrenia, psychosis, bipolar disorder, severe depression and/or anxiety, medication is often a key part of their treatment/management plan. It’s therefore vital for people with schizophrenia to learn about all the different treatment options available so they can play an active role in their recovery.
